[QUOTE="Putz ND, post: 195697, member: 1031"] Had HS precision build me a 7.5# .338 Lapua with a muzzle brake that’s vented slightly reward. Thought it’d be a great long range elk/mountain setup. Fun to shoot a few times off a bench, usually lose my sunglasses and hat, I’ve learned that little rubber ring on a scope is quite valuable. It’s not a sharp recoil, but one hell of a push, if that makes sence... The gun shoots better than I can, hated sighting it though. 300 grains @ 2750 FPS, after this season, I could write a book on why not to use match ammo to harvest game. No lost animals, but we made things more challenging for ourselves than need be! [/QUOTE]
